The Articulate Witness:
An Illustrated Guide to Testifying Confidently Under Oath

About the Book

Every day in the United States, ordinary people are called to testify in court. Most of them have never been involved in a legal proceeding. But they have probably seen witnesses in high-profile trials on TV, being harshly cross examined, looking nervous or anxious—perhaps even humiliated. The thought of testifying can be scary. Being subpoenaed can lead to weeks or months of anxiety until the day arrives when they raise their right hand and swear to tell the truth. Now attorneys have a new tool for helping these anxious witnesses to “Calm down, speak up, and be ready.”

“I send a copy [of The Ariticulate Witness] to every witness before trial. It really is the best witness prep I have used. Once I worked with it, I scrapped the letter I prepared and had been using, in various incarnations, for more than a decade. It is a superior piece of work."

Thomas S. Boothe, Attorney at Law

“The Articulate Witness is an excellent reference for witnesses, attorneys, experts, or any other person whose profession or circumstances require him to speak in a legal proceeding."
